+---------------------------------------------------------+ | | | WiMob'2008 | | | | 4th IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE on | | Wireless & Mobile Computing, Networking & communication | | | +---------------------------------------------------------+
Avignon, FRANCE October 12-14, 2008
http://www.lia.univ-avignon.fr/wimob2008
SCOPE: ------
The research area of mobile computing has become more important following the recent widespread drive towards mobile ad hoc networks, wireless sensor networks and vehicular ad hoc networks tracking technologies and their applications. The availability of the high bandwidth 3G infrastructures, and the pervasive deployment of low cost WiFi infrastructure and WiMAX to create hotspots around the world serve to accelerate the development of mobile computing towards ubiquitous computing.
WiMob’08 addresses three main areas:
Wireless Communications Mobile Networking, Mobility and Nomadicity Ubiquitous Computing, Services and Applications
This conference aims to stimulate interactions among participants and enable them to exchange new ideas and practical experience. WiMob’08 is the fourth in a series of annual conferences: two times in Montréal (QC), Canada in 2005 and 2006 and the last one in New York, USA in 2007.
Best papers award and travel grants
* 1 X Student best paper award for full time student * 1 X Best paper award * 2 X Travel grant for students from outside Europe: To apply, you must be student from outside EU. The application will be open on EDAS. The committee will review your applications and will award the grants to the students deserving as regards the social aspects, the recommendation of the PhD supervisor, the interest for the student to attend the conference and the quality of the paper.
Special issues of Journals
Conjointly with WiMob 2008, Special Issues (SI) of journals will be organized and launched (the detail is coming soon). The call of these SI will be open to all public. However, we invite a certain number of original and technically sound papers (selected by the TPC co-chairs and following the reviewing process) to be improved and submitted to a designated SI.
Social Event: Dinner and dancing Cruise
